Deputy General Director of FAI “ROSDORNII” Anton Zhuravlev took part in the online conference “Intelligent Transport Systems and Elements of Situation Centers”, held as part of the Security Technologies Forum on July 5, 2023.
The expert spoke about the directions for ITS development. He noted that the large-scale use of new electronic technologies, the genuine digital transformation are integral elements of the changes that take place today in the road industry of the Russian Federation. The impetus was provided by the National Project “Safe-Quality Roads”, as well as the project “Deployment of intelligent transport systems to insure traffic management automation in urban agglomerations, including cities with a population exceeding 300 thousand people.”
ROSDORNII takes part in providing methodological support to the Russian regions. Today, issues of ITS subsystem maintenance and operation are on the agenda and require regulatory support. There is a need to approve a standardization program in a prompt manner that would reflect work plans for the medium term,” said Anton Zhuravlev. He noted that in the Russian regions, maintenance of ITS receives financing from regional budgets.
The ITS Department of ROSDORNII, jointly with research and design organizations, developed 17 national standards in the field of intelligent transport systems and prepared proposals for updating at least three national standards. As part of its work with regions, the Institute provides consulting services: the evaluation and analysis of local ITS projects; the preparation of proposals for changing provisions of regulatory and other documents to ensure ITS implementation and development; the provision of verbal and written consultations, opinions, analytical notes, and certificates for the state company “Roads of Russia”.
Further ITS development includes not only the formation of regulatory documents but also the integration of road, transport, technological, service, and information infrastructures into a single complex. It is necessary to quickly coordinate the actions of Departments, services, and various entities involved in road traffic management.
The speaker recalled that ROSDORNII is always open to proposals on the development of uniform standards in the field of ITS and ready to consider requests sent at the official website as well as to discuss them at dedicated forums in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
